do you think hagel will squeak through and eventually be confirmed? >> yeah, i think there is no doubt about it. no secretary of defense has ever gotten the thumbs down this way. as a matter of fact, i can't think of any cabinet secretary cabinet appointee in history who hasn't gotten an up or down vote. so i think john mccain himself has said he'll get an up or down vote. when he does, he'll be confirmed. >> eric: it seems as days go on, could that snowball? you got all these comments he made in the past, talking about the jewish lobby, saying the iranian regime is legitimate, talking about sanctions, saying that the policy is containment when it's not, it's prevention. in rutgers, he apparently had a statement that claimed he accused the state department of doing the ordering and the bidding of the israeli foreign ministry. because you have this delay, could more come out? could this snowball within the next week and a half that he could be pulled? >> well, i don't know about you, eric, but i rarely seen a cabinet secretary, cabinet appointee under

hagel has the votes. senator graham is raising questions about his support of israel. >> allegedly senator hagel said that the united states state department was an adjunct of the israeli foreign minister's office which would be breath taking to have such a view. >> the former senator denied making that statement and senator graham said he will take hagel at his word unless new information emerges. >> senator john mccain says the senate should go ahead and confirm hagel because there has been enough time for questions. >> the republicans have been spending a lot of political capital on this. what is the white house saying about the nominations being delayed? >> they don't like it. they know hagel probably will be confirmed. the president said last week that much of the questioning about the attack on the consulate in benghazi was politically motivated and congress is running out of questions to ask. democrats say plenty of information has been released already. >> what is happening is very unusual unprece
